[Verse 1]
When I left your house the first time
I had this feeling like I'd left something behind
I checked both of my pockets, had my keys and my wallet
Had my necklace and my phone
How am I missin' something
That I didn't know existed like a week ago?
When I kissed your lips the first time
I had this feeling like I'd left something behind
I spent eighteen months thinking I was messed up
And I'd never learn to let it go
Now here you are shaking the fear
That love could only ever be what I've already known

[Pre-Chorus]
I say the right thing, it's kinda my thing
Losing myself tryna fix everything
It's shit from my past, I know you get that
It's just what I've learned and all that I've had

[Chorus]
Love don't work if I don't hold it together
It all gets worse if I don't hold it together
And I'm afraid to love this way forever
I wanna let you know me ways I never would've let her
Take my heart and we can hold it together
[Verse 2]
This is nothing like the first time
You don't remind me of a thing
And we both got memories
But when you're next to me all that I see
Is you in front of me

[Pre-Chorus]
I say the right thing, it's kinda my thing
Losing myself tryna fix everything

[Chorus]
Love don't work if I don't hold it together
It all gets worse if I don't hold it together
And I'm afraid to love this way forever
I wanna let you know me ways I never would've let her
Take my heart and we can hold it together
Could this work if I don't hold it together?
Of all my habits, I just like you better
I wanna let you know me ways I never would've let her
Take my heart and we can hold it together

[Outro]
Hold it together
Hold it together
